Carragher said they kept a back three, Neville was saying they didn't (they clearly did) I found that discussion very amusing. During the game Neville said Man City were using Cancelo and Foden as advanced wing backs
Anyway the table clearly shows the trouble we've given ourselves. West ham Forest Ajax Leeds Absolutely critical now to build upon this win by winning all 3 league games. Ajax away = must draw at worst. That's the cl then put away and forgotten about. 9 more points in October to play for to try reduce the gap to 4th which is a solid 6 points and huge right now. This is just 3 points. Psychologically it's much much more to use for the next game but it really is just 3 more points to build from.
He is a bit of a moron. It's fairly clear foden was up against milner all game and not a wing back ever. He was right that carragher was talking **** though. All game it was ake at lcb with the other two in possession. What I don't get is neither pointed out every othe rancher on the planet would have seen how poor lfc have been on our right and over loaded us. Pep put all his width on the right and left foden isolated on the left and he just ran away from goal.mostly cos milner and gomez hit him hard. In short imo foden bottled it after a couple good thumpings.
thought that was probably our best collective defensive performance of the season with the whole team putting a shift in . Now do it every game .
Pep claiming Liverpool fans threw coins at him (no idea but cctv will tell us over the next day or two if true) after their goal was disallowed. Wrong if they did (and deserve the consequences) but maybe Pep shouldn't gesture towards them to incite such behaviour. Will he get into trouble for that? Players have in the past.
Was pretty worried when I saw the team sheet to be honest but we were outstanding and put a proper shift in. Great to see Gomez in that kind of form again and you have to tip your hat to Milner, has been rightly vilified this season but did an amazing job today on and off the ball. Salah looks like he’s back to the level he and we all expect which is great. As mito has pointed out, we must use this and string 3 more wins together in these October fixtures
Think Salah needed that kick up the bum of being left out on Wednesday. It said unless you prove it, you can be an automatic starter. Needed it imo.
Won't be reported anywhere. Their away allocation should he halved in future. They will then get away with tit for tat revenge in the away game of course.
